Chapter 20: The Imperial Spy

Yang Ji, a native of Langya County, may not know what happened in Tianshui County. You don't necessarily know about the secret things like treasure maps.

But if there is still someone behind him, it will be different.

If this Yang Ji really went to the treasure map, then many things could be explained.

In other words, Luo Shanghao's guy is likely to have been killed after that guy succeeded. This also explains why Admiral Tieler's Mansion has searched for so long and has not found any trace of him.

――When the treasure is in hand, who will leave the bitter master?

The old man looked up at the third son, who looked calm, and seemed to have made a decision about this matter.

"It's time to mobilize the guards. Immediately send a letter to Luoyang Mountain, and let the big guards return home immediately!"

The third prince suddenly said in a deep voice.

As soon as these words fell, it was like thunder on the ground, and the old man was shocked, his eyes widened suddenly, and he showed a shocked look in his eyes, and hurriedly said urgently:

"Childe, the transfer of the Iron Guard is not trivial. At the beginning, the lord said that the transfer of the iron guard must have the order of the eldest prince. And there are more important things on Sunset Mountain. At this time, the transfer is not trivial, or I should ask the eldest prince first-"

"No need!"

A trace of anger flashed in the eyes of the third prince, and he interrupted the butler's words irritably:

"The treasure map "Relationship Heavy DΓ . If you want to deal with that Yang Ji, you can only dispatch your father's iron guard. And there are twelve iron guards in the house, and I only mobilize three, so what does it matter? Think about that treasure map, don't we want it?"

"Moreover, you have to inform the eldest brother of everything. Do you want my eldest brother to doubt my abilities?"

The last sentence was full of eloquence, with a strong flavor of questioning.

The old man was helpless, so he could only bow his head and said helplessly:

"But. Luoyang Mountain is nearly 10,000 miles away. I won't be able to come back in twenty or thirty days!"

"Then wait!"

The eyes of the third prince were cold:

"Before that, give me a dead eye on that Yang Ji. I want to know his every move. ”

"Yes!"

The old housekeeper had no choice but to answer.

Passing through the flower trees and leaving the backyard of the General Tiele Mansion, you can still vaguely hear the screams of the girl. But the old butler's mind was no longer here at all.

"Iron Guard. I didn't expect this to happen. ”

The old butler's eyes were sad. The iron guard is the foundation of the Tiele General's Mansion, and he doesn't dare to do it lightly. But the reason of the third prince made him unable to refute it.

That treasure map has been staring at General Tieler's Mansion for a long time. If you can get the contents of the treasure map, it will be of great use to the Mansion of Admiral Tieler.

Every year in the Han Dynasty, many rookies emerged. There are quite a few new young generals emerging. When the old man was a general, he was high-spirited and was a man of the hour in the entire east.

But now, in the Taiyuan Continent Mansion, I don't know how many new generals have emerged. The prestige of Admiral Tieler's Mansion is also far less than before.

Even dealing with a disciple of Langya County requires a lot of effort to dispatch iron guards.

If that treasure is real, get it. The lord will be crowned a king and a marquis in the future. Only in this way can the General Tiele Mansion break free from the current shackles and go to a higher level.

"The general is suppressed on the border, and the eldest prince is not there, only the third prince hopes not to cause any chaos. At such a big price, I hope it will really be worth it in the end!"

With such a sigh, the old butler flicked his sleeves and walked out.

......

The Jade Axe Inn is said to be an inn. Actually, it's about the same as a palace. The roof of gold glaze, the furniture of golden silk nanmu. The gold and silver wine jug is also silky and shiny, and the top brocade quilt.

The most important thing is that the inn rooms are actually divided into two floors, with exquisite spiral staircase connections. This one room is almost the size of a normal three or four rooms.

Because of this, the number of rooms at the Jade Axe Inn has been greatly reduced.

On Suzaku Street. The Jade Axe Inn is a well-known gold cave. The cost of one night is more than 1,000 taels of silver, and ordinary people can't live in it except for the merchant giants.

"Sure enough, it's a gold cave!"

The table of golden silk nanmu is elegant and atmospheric, and Yang Ji strokes the smooth table top with emotion. After ending the meeting with Ouyang Zishi, it has been two days since he came out of Changqing Tower. Yang Ji still couldn't get used to the luxury here.

Thinking about the fact that in the Yang clan before, they almost couldn't even eat, and the luxury in front of them was completely unimaginable. This is also fortunate that Yang Ji is a martial artist, and there are many treasures on his body, just the ordinary fine iron is already extremely valuable, not to mention the hundreds of superb flying swords on Yang Jiyi's body.

"Childe, do you have any instructions?"

Yang Ji just sighed a few words here, and when he heard movement outside the door, there was immediately a girl's voice, soft-spoken, just listening to the sound made people feel a burst of numbness in their bones, obviously the girl's appearance must be extremely beautiful.

"No need. ”

Yang Ji hurriedly spoke.

This jade axe inn is not used in the second child, serving tea and water, and smiling faces are all young girls with good talents, and they can even help wash their feet.

Yang Ji is young after all, where can he get used to this kind of woman's service, so if he can, he will try not to trouble.

"Hmm. If you need it, please feel free to tell me. ”

The woman stood outside the door, her palm already touching the crack in the door, but she retreated.

Yang Ji felt that the breath outside the door was gradually moving away, so he breathed a sigh. Putting the jade bowl back on the table, Yang Ji walked to the table and pushed open the window.

Outside the courtyard wall, a huge locust tree with lush branches and leaves. At the top of the canopy, there is a full moon.

"What a good month!"

Yang Ji looked at the bright understanding in the sky and smiled slightly. Suddenly, his expression was cold, and without warning, Yang Ji turned his palm over and sucked at the locust tree in the distance.

"Whew!"

The wind was howling, and the thousands of leaves on the canopy of the huge locust tree kept shaking, tilting in the direction of Yang Ji. The next moment, there was a sudden exclamation, and a black shadow shot out obliquely from the canopy, and its body flew uncontrollably towards Yang Ji's window.

Bang!

In mid-air, the blood in the figure's body exploded. He also tried to struggle and escape. But Yang Ji's five fingers were like hooks, and he suddenly shrank, and the figure immediately flew through the window and into Yang Ji's room.

"Who sent you?"

Yang Ji said coldly. The five-fingered fingers clamped the man's neck like iron pincers. This is a thin man dressed as a businessman, who fell into Yang Ji's hands and kept struggling, but he couldn't escape.

"Stop. I'm just a trader here, I don't understand what you're talking about......"

The thin man kicked hard, but he couldn't break free from Yang Ji's palm. His face was flushed with glances, and his eyes looked at Yang Ji with a look of indignation, as if he had been greatly wronged.

"Merchants, will they run to the trees in the middle of the night?"

Yang Ji sneered, he didn't believe it at all.

"Why can't the merchant run to the tree? It's a good moonlit night, can't I go to the tree to get cold?"

The thin man argues. A look of annoyance.

"Hey, of course the merchant can run to the tree. But won't the guild even change the royal robes inside?"

Yang Ji sneered, stretched out his left hand, and snorted off the fancy merchant robe on the thin man's body. A cyan brocade robe was revealed inside the robe, and the two words Taiyuan on the chest were strong and powerful, and they were clearly visible.

"Looks like you're still quite proud of who you are. When I changed my clothes, I didn't even change the clothes inside. ”

Yang Ji was condescending. A look of sarcasm.

From the beginning of Changqing Tower, Yang Ji had already discovered that someone was following him. Yang Ji didn't care at first. Unexpectedly, these people actually followed up the Jade Axe Building, rented a room, and squatted on the big locust tree opposite.

This is too much to take yourself into, what do you think of yourself? Are you blind?

Although Yang Ji is not afraid of being followed, he is so blatant, and his level is too inferior.

The thin man hung his hands down. Obviously this is a hard wound. After following for a few days, the other party didn't move, and I thought I had succeeded. Unexpectedly, the other party had already found out.

Soon, though, the thin man perked up. Facing Yang Ji, his eyes were aggressive.

"Hey, boy, don't you let me go if you know that I'm from the palace? Dare to do something to the people from the palace, I think you want to be locked up, arrest and take me to prison!"

The thin man's eyes were skewed, and he looked fearless.

Seeing the thin man's expression, Yang Ji smiled instead:

"Who said that you are the personal guard of the palace? Do you think that it is okay to wear a brocade robe? This thing seems to be forged by anyone, right?"

The thin man was stunned, looking at Yang Ji, his brain was a little unable to react.

"Hey, hey. ”

Yang Ji glanced at him and continued:

"I don't want to think about it, how could the palace squat on a tree in the middle of the night and peep? Needless to say, it must be fake. And forging the royal palace brocade robe, this seems to be a big crime, right? Come to think of it, even if I kill him, the palace should not be blamed, right?"

"Buzz!"

Hearing this, the thin man's face changed drastically and became extremely pale. At this moment, he finally knew Yang Ji's plan.

"You dare!"

The thin man said sharply, but it was obviously stubble. He disguised himself as a merchant and drilled into a tree at night, originally to spy on Yang Ji's movements. But it seems that Yang Ji is now going to take advantage of this to make a big fuss.

"Hey, why don't you dare? There are millions of people in the Zhou Mansion, you said that if I kill you unknowingly at night. You say that there is anyone who can prove that it is my tree. - No need to look around, no need to look outside the door. Believe it or not, if you try to scream and attract other people, I will definitely be able to rip your throat before you scream. ”

Yang Ji collected his five fingers and did not hide his murderous intentions.

"Don't you dare! You think you can't find it out in the palace. Do you know how much risk you have to take to kill the people of the palace?"

The thin man stiffened his neck, but he couldn't hide the panic in his eyes. He now regretted coming to squat on a night like this.

"Hehe, you're still using the palace to suppress me. The royal prince of Taiyuan will be interested in me as a little candidate. Will they send someone to keep an eye on them? I'm afraid that's what other people mean. Speaking of which, I'm afraid you still disobeyed the orders of the palace, right?"

Yang Ji sneered, seeing through his heart at a glance. (To be continued......) R1292
